"I am saddened to hear of the passing of Al Rosen. During his time as Yankees president in the late 1970s, Al was not only a trusted member of the Yankees' front office, but someone my father relied on. Al left an imprint on baseball and we are grateful that a portion of his time was spent with the Yankees. We extend our deepest sympathies to his family and friends."
